'Hoops for Haiti' a big win for relief effort

Students fell just short against staff, 37-31, in the "Hoops for Haiti" exhibition game on April 15, but the game was a big win for the Brandeis Haiti Relief Effort.

The friendly contest pushed the fundraising total for the student-organized Haiti Relief Effort above $15,000. Its goal is to raise $25,000 by the end of the academic year.

On May 1, students will host "A Night for Haiti" at 7:30 p.m. in Levin Ballroom. The evening will feature musical entertainment, hor d’oeuvres, desserts and a silent auction. Tickets are $25 at the door and $10 in advance for Brandeis students and $15 in advance for non-Brandeis students. For more information, please contact Jon Ostrowsky. Tickets can be purchased at the Shapiro Campus Center Box Office or online through Brandeis Tickets.
